Star Wars Rebel Release & Time With My Little Man

This past
weekend was so much fun. I packed in as much activity as I could for the kids!
We went to a homecoming football game, traveling to soccer games, ice cream
treats, visiting our first pumpkin patch of the season, hanging out at a home
and garden show, and a visit at an indoor trampoline play place. Wayne had to
work all weekend, so I wanted to create a mini stay-cation adventure for the
kids and me. But even though
everything this weekend included all three of the kids equally, Noah tends to
get ‘stuck’ with his mommy and sissies a lot, and every once in a while I try
to make sure we do something ‘boyish’ with him. He’s been
telling me about ‘this new’ show coming on TV soon – it’s called “Star WarsRebels”. It’s a new series on the Disney XD channel beginning October 13th.

I was
shopping at Walmart Friday getting stuff for the weekend and I noticed a Star
Wars Rebels DVD display in the center aisle by the electronics, and instantly
thought of Noah.

He walked in
the door Friday evening an immediately saw the new presents and started
shouting, “Thank you Mommy! Thank you Mommy!” He began playing with his new
toy, but we had to migrate out in the front yard so he had more room to
practice.

We all
kicked back Saturday morning before our soccer games and snuggled up on my bed
and watched Noah’s new show with him. He definitely felt like the center of
attention! I love surprising the kids sometimes with things like this –
ultimately it’s not just the toy or DVD, but the thought and time spent
together that really makes it worth it.

You can
purchase the new Star Wars Rebels exclusively at Walmart until the 13th!
